 It's cold here in central Virginia and I'm bored with just walking th halls.  If I keep it very slow, would anyone out ther agree with me that riding would be okay at this point?

My very conservative Doc said bike at 5 weeks. I've been just walking...

I would check with your doctor. "Just in case" anything should go wrong, you would want their clearance, wouldn't you??

 Thanks for the input, folks!  I'll call the surgeon's office first,  :)

 I was cleared to ride my recumbent bike at 2 wks, but definitely clear with your doc. Everyone is different.
